Synopsis

Thea Shade must brave the deadliest school on the planet just because her brother was clever—or stupid—enough to entrust her with a dangerous mission.
One small problem: no one besides her even knows he exists.
The Hunter Association only takes the best candidates for their four divisions, and it's only the bravest who even dare to take the exam for the Orions. Fierce killers and bloodthirsty warriors, the lot of them, and the Orions are permitted to destroy to their heart's content so long as it's against the savage beasts that plague their lands. If a few colleagues conveniently die in the process, no one will even bat an eye. It's at this kill-school that Thea must outwit and outkill the rest of her class in order to accomplish the mission her brother gave her.
This story gleams like a dagger in the night and cuts twice as deep as Thea learns the precious skills to survive a planet rampant with monsters and hunters twice as vicious as they are. She must become a monster herself in order to rise to the top and help her brother before it's too late.

This story contains scenes with explicit violence, hints of sexual threat, and savage monsters best left out of the imagination of youngsters. That said, it does not glorify or overly dwell on gore, but it is present at certain points. There is also some light profanity in the languages of men, dwarves, elves, and you'll find out who else.

Get ready to face the worst this cursed planet to offer.
Become a Hunter.
Rise above it all and discover the truth veiled the shadows posing as the light.
